Its been a while since my last post but I hope you enjoy this one


Title. Flinging

Flinging out the door
toast in mouth
butter streaming on yesterdays shirt.

Billy's Le Mans start,
prompted by squealing brakes of the distant 32 bus
triggered him towards the event horizon.

Springing over vacant dog,
startled cat, stumbling then
tumbling towards  
satchel scratching, holly hedge
the Postman bagatelles Billy
through the open gate.

Relief wiping brow
then shirt tucking tidy
as he spied Betty on the back seat.

she was stunning
as was the blow from the Toyota Prius  
as it accelerated away.  

The paramedic sighed
at the tragedy  
the filthiest pants he had seen in years

His family has been informed.
